Taurus New Moon – Know  what makes you happy

New moons help us to tap into our abilities to manifest our desires. Around every 4 weeks there is a new Moon and according to what sign it’s in, it highlights an area of our life that comes to the forefront. Taurus being an Earth sign brings our attention to our physical body. It is about taking time to nurture our body, to do things that we love. Experiencing our senses, taste, touch, sensuality, pampering ourselves. Getting back to our roots, setting practical goals and having the persistence and patience to achieve them. 

The new Moon in Taurus is happening on 20th May 2023 at 28º25’ at 1.53 am AEST.

Taurus is the most optimistic Earth sign. This optimism and delightfulness comes from its ruler Venus, that attracts things to you. Taurus loves peace and hates conflict, loves serenity yet shivers from drama. They desire things to be comfortable. The cliche of: “Built for comfort, not for speed” is indeed a funny, but accurate way of describing them. 

Know what makes you happy, know what gives you stability and make plans toward that. At the new Moon you give momentum to your desires! It is important to make practical, long term goals and put your attention to manifest things that bring that kind of abundance. 

So set your intention to the area of your life, where you wish to create growth, abundance and pleasure. The bull is slow, steady and have the endurance to do what it takes for the long run and resilient enough to have patience to collect the benefit later. Practical step by step process creates the change that inspires you to move forward.

Mercury just came out of retrograde and its effect is still clearing out from your life things that’s not working. Stop and reflect what needs a change in your life. This will be your Taurus area in your birth chart. So what do you want to change in your life? What area do you might need to revamp or take a new direction? If something doesn’t work for you, maybe it isn’t true for you! Think about that. Set your intention and get clarity what you like to create in the coming months that have long term implication for your future. 

On 21st May 2023, Mars will move into the sign of Leo and will oppose Pluto. An interestingly deep and powerful alignment will bring intense encounters that reveal parts of you that you may have chosen to ignore. This intense energy gives room to make fundamental changes in your life that previously may eluded you. Look inward before making any decisions. Understand your motivation and once you do, then take the necessary steps forward to bring it into your reality.
